What Makes KOHA Cat Food for Allergies Great?

KOHA cat food is the ideal choice for cats with food allergies and extreme food sensitivities. Here’s why:

Limited Ingredients

The best cat food for allergies contains limited, high-quality ingredients. This approach simplifies your cat’s diet and reduces exposure to potential allergens, making it easier to spot and manage sensitivities. A limited ingredient diet typically includes one protein source, vitamins and minerals, and fats for nutritional balance.

Novel Proteins 

High quality cat food for cats with food allergies contain novel proteins that your cat hasn’t been previously exposed to in their diet. Because your cat’s body isn’t familiar with these proteins, it reduces the likelihood of their immune system triggering allergic reactions. Novel protein cat food, featuring less common proteins like venison, kangaroo or rabbit, provides a fresh—and hypoallergenic—option for your cat’s diet.

No Junky Fillers

The best food for cats with food allergies will avoid junky fillers like corn and soy, which can trigger allergic reactions and make it difficult to identify the problematic allergen. By steering clear of these fillers, you’re ensuring your cat receives the necessary vitamins, minerals, and proteins for optimal health without unnecessary extras. KOHA focuses on targeted nutrition, free from these troublesome ingredients.

Hypoallergenic Diets

Every formula is developed with a focus on providing a hypoallergenic diet. That means tailoring nutrition to cats with sensitive systems, reducing exposure to common allergens, and offering balanced, wholesome meals that support long-term health. With KOHA, you’re giving your cat a diet designed specifically to help them thrive, even with food allergies.

Why You Might Need Cat Food for Food Allergies

If your cat experiences allergy symptoms like skin problems and thinning fur, itchy or watery eyes, or discomfort after eating, your cat may have food allergies. It’s crucial to identify these symptoms early to provide relief and improve your cat’s quality of life, including through dietary changes.

Skin Allergies 

Skin allergies in cats are often triggered by exposure to certain proteins, environmental factors, or food ingredients, leading to itchy skin, rashes, skin lesions, and thinning fur. These symptoms tend to intensify over time, as your cat’s immune system gradually builds a defense against the offending substances.

KOHA Limited Ingredient Diet cat foods focus on reducing potential allergens, offering a gentler diet for your cat’s skin health. Novel protein options, including duck, rabbit, and kangaroo, feature one animal protein per recipe to give you the best chance at avoiding allergic reactions.

KOHA cat food formulas also exclude common allergens like potatoes and artificial flavors, further helping to alleviate skin issues triggered by your cat’s diet.

Digestive Issues

Digestive issues in cats caused by food allergies can result from hypersensitivity to specific food certain ingredients leading to symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or gastrointestinal discomfort.

Sensitive Stomachs

Food allergies can contribute to sensitive stomachs in cats by causing inflammation or irritation in the digestive tract, which can cause chronic indigestion, bloating, and gas.

Fortunately, the best cat food for cats with sensitive skin can also make a world of difference for a sensitive stomach. KOHA Limited Ingredient Bland Diet is the perfect recipe for cats with chronic upset stomach. It’s made with a single animal protein—real shredded chicken—to minimize the risk of digestive discomfort, fiber-rich pumpkin and white rice to promote regularity, and is free from junky fillers that can contribute to an upset stomach.

What to feed a cat with itchy skin?+

If your cat has itchy skin, it’s important to eliminate potential food sensitivities by feeding them a diet with novel proteins and minimal ingredients.
